About
Lathe runs a user's app together with its database (Postgres, Redis, CouchDB, or NATS) and Supabase-based authentication on one dedicated machine, handling backups, TLS, monitoring, and deploys triggered by a GitHub push. It bills a single flat monthly price with nothing metered, positioned as a middle ground between fragmented managed platforms and a self-run bare VPS.
What it does
The site says Lathe puts a product and its data on one dedicated machine that Lathe operates, and that a coding agent sets it up by reading a plain-text instruction page and calling Lathe's MCP server. It lists five plans sized by processor, memory and storage, including a free one.
